Modern computational studies of the glass transition

L Berthier, DR Reichman - Nature Reviews Physics, 2023‏ - nature.com
The physics of the glass transition and amorphous materials continues to attract the attention
of a wide research community after decades of effort. Supercooled liquids and glasses have …

Irreversibility and biased ensembles in active matter: Insights from stochastic thermodynamics

É Fodor, RL Jack, ME Cates - Annual Review of Condensed …, 2022‏ - annualreviews.org
Active systems evade the rules of equilibrium thermodynamics by constantly dissipating
energy at the level of their microscopic components. This energy flux stems from the …

Theoretical perspective on the glass transition and amorphous materials

L Berthier, G Biroli - Reviews of modern physics, 2011‏ - APS
A theoretical perspective is provided on the glass transition in molecular liquids at thermal
equilibrium, on the spatially heterogeneous and aging dynamics of disordered materials …

[کتاب][B] Dynamical heterogeneities in glasses, colloids, and granular media

L Berthier, G Biroli, JP Bouchaud, L Cipelletti… - 2011‏ - books.google.com
Most of the solid materials we use in everyday life, from plastics to cosmetic gels exist under
a non-crystalline, amorphous form: they are glasses. Yet, we are still seeking a fundamental …

Universality in driven open quantum matter

LM Sieberer, M Buchhold, J Marino, S Diehl - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2023‏ - arxiv.org
Universality is a powerful concept, which enables making qualitative and quantitative
predictions in systems with extensively many degrees of freedom. It finds realizations in …

Macroscopic stochastic thermodynamics

G Falasco, M Esposito - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2025‏ - APS
Starting at the mesoscopic level with a general formulation of stochastic thermodynamics in
terms of Markov jump processes, the scaling conditions that ensure the emergence of a …

Unraveling the large deviation statistics of Markovian open quantum systems

F Carollo, RL Jack, JP Garrahan - Physical review letters, 2019‏ - APS
We analyze dynamical large deviations of quantum trajectories in Markovian open quantum
systems in their full generality. We derive a quantum level-2.5 large deviation principle for …

Dynamics on the way to forming glass: Bubbles in space-time

D Chandler, JP Garrahan - Annual review of physical chemistry, 2010‏ - annualreviews.org
We review a theoretical perspective of the dynamics of glass-forming liquids and the glass
transition, a perspective developed during this past decade based on the structure of …

Frenesy: Time-symmetric dynamical activity in nonequilibria

C Maes - Physics Reports, 2020‏ - Elsevier
We review the concept of dynamical ensembles in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics as
specified from an action functional or Lagrangian on spacetime. There, under local detailed …

Ergodicity and large deviations in physical systems with stochastic dynamics

RL Jack - The European Physical Journal B, 2020‏ - Springer
In ergodic physical systems, time-averaged quantities converge (for large times) to their
ensemble-averaged values. Large deviation theory describes rare events where these time …
